PROBLEM: Current high power commercial engines are not compact enough for future manned ground combat platforms. Future ground combat vehicles will require lighter and more efficient engines that occupy less space. Current state of the art engines require significant development to operate on one fuel and meet future vehicle power and mobility needs. RESEARCH CHALLENGES: Diesel combustion research to increase physical burn time; Propulsion system research to increase power density; Engine thermal management research; Research combustion optimization strategy for JP-8 military version of an emission compliant commercial engine.
